Gurnard Bay Swimming Forecast
Gurnard · United Kingdom
Gurnard Bay scores 77/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces W. A small, sheltered beach on the north coast of the Isle of Wight, west of Cowes, gently shelving sand and shingle with some rocky sections. The north-facing Solent shore produces no surf; consistent breezes and a sailing club make it popular for dinghy sailing and windsurfing. A river outflow and storm outfalls lie just west, a hazard near the discharge points. No lifeguard service; currents strengthen at mid-to-high water. Dogs banned 1 May-30 September.
